The cherry on top? They couldn’t dance either, with LeMisha being a little bit unfit and Irish looking out of place. But, when the spotlight landed on Irish and LeMisha, their vocals were a catastrophe - something that was especially shocking given the 702 singers were cosigned by comedian Sinbad and R&B legend Michael Bivins. Most of the women were able to hold a tune, with Nivea, Shamari, Aubrey and the twins singing the best. Years after their musical peak, the ladies return to the limelight and, to be honest, it’s a train wreck.ĭuring one scene of Encore, a vocal coach assessed the ladies different vocals to see where they would fit in the group.

The catalyst of the show is for these veteran singers to ban together to create an entire album and live performance as an R&B supergroup by the end of 30 days. On the first episode, viewers were reintroduced to solo artist Nivea, twin sisters Fallon and Felisha King of Cherish, Kiely Williams of 3LW, Aubrey O’Day from Bad Boy group Danity Kane, Shamari DeVoe of Blaque, Pamela Long from Bad Boy group Total, and Irish and LeMisha Grinstead from 702.
